Definitions
- the present invention provides an adduct of a human t-PA derivative, wherein said adduct comprises a t-PA derivative that lacks the Finger, Growth Factor and Kringle 1 domains, bound to an amphipathic molecule.
- the invention also provides methods and compositions for the treatment of thromboembolic disorders.
- Plasminogen activators are a unique class of enzymes that convert the catalytically inactive zymogen plasminogen to its active enzymatic form, plasmin. Plasmin is a Serine Protease requisite for the dissolution of fibrin (Colleen, D., 1980, Thromb. Haemostasis 43:77-89). Several plasminogen activators are now being.used as in vivo fibrinolytic agents in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction (Tiefenbrunn, et al ., 1989, Fibrinolysis 3:1-15).
- Tissue plasminogen activator has been the focus of considerable attention because its ability to activate plasminogen is significantly enhanced in the presence of fibrin (Rijken et al. , 1982, J. Biol. Chem. 257:2920-2925), a property that should make it more clot specific when used as an in vivo fibrinolytic agent.
- the inferred sequence of 527 amino acids comprises five distinct structural domains: a Finger domain; a Growth Factor domain; two Kringle domains; and a Serine Protease domain (Pennica et al. , 1983, Nature 301:214, and Banyai et al. , 1983, FEBS Lett. 163:37-41).
- a series of deletion mutants of t-PA that comprise the Serine Protease domain and one or more of the other four structural domains of the intact molecule have been constructed (van Zonneveld et al. , 1986, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 83:4670; Erlich et al.
- mt-PA6 produced by recombinant DNA techniques was found to possess greater fibrinolytic activity and a greater ability to activate thrombus-bound plasminogen than t-PA (Jackson et al. , 1990, Circulation 82:930-940).
- mt-PA6 is found in two glycosylation forms when produced by eukaryotic cell culture using recombinant DNA techniques. These two glycosylation forms account for the doublet of 40 and 41 kD bands seen when the purified mt-PA6 molecule is analyzed by gel electrophoresis.
- One of the glycosylation forms Primary mt-PA6 (mt-PA6-P)
- mt-PA6-P is glycosylated at amino acid 176 (equivalent to amino acid 448 of t-PA) but not at amino acid 11 (equivalent to amino acid 184 of t-PA).
- the second glycosylation form, Variant mt-PA6 is glycosylated at both amino acids 11 and 276.
- mt-PA6 lacks the Kringle 1 domain and, therefore, lacks the glycosylation site at amino acid 117 of this domain.
- mt-PA6-V comprises 10-25% of the mt-PA6 molecules secreted from the Syrian hamster cell line AV12-664 (Burk et al. , supra ).
- the thrombolytic potential of mt-PA6-V and its role in fibrinogen degradation and plasminogen degradation were examined using methods described by Jackson et al. , supra . These studies demonstrated that diglycosylated t-PA derivatives lacking the Finger, Growth Factor and Kringle 1 domains, such as mt-PA6-V, provide advantages over their partially glycosylated counterparts in the treatment of thromboembolic disorders. Although the monoglycosylated mt-PA6-P has a higher in vitro specific activity, the diglycosylated mt-PA6-V is a more efficient thrombolytic agent in vivo .
- mt-PA6-V displays the unexpected and advantageous properties of causing less systemic conversion of plasminogen to plasmin, is markedly less prone to metabolism to its two-chain form, and has a higher fibrinolytic versus fibrinogenolytic ratio than mt-PA6-P. Surprisingly, mt-PA6-V also provides a greater maintenance of coronary blood flow and a faster time to reperfusion. Methods of treating thromboembolic disorders by the use of the diglycosylated form of t-PA derivatives that lack the Finger, Growth Factor and Kringle 1 domains, are disclosed in EP-A-493037.
- the present invention describes how these advantageous properties can be imparted to t-PA derivatives, such as mt-PA6, by means other than glycosylation. This is of importance because when these derivatives are produced by recombinant DNA technology from eukaryotic cell cultures, only 10%-15% of the resulting molecules are diglycosylated.
- the present invention makes it possible to convert the entire population of recombinantly produced t-PA derivatives that lack the Finger, Growth Factor and Kringle 1 domains to molecules having the enhanced thrombolytic properties of the diglycosylated form of the t-PA derivative molecule. Additionally, the economically disadvantageous process of separating the glycosylation forms in order to obtain only the diglycosylated form for use in in vivo thrombolytic therapy is avoided.
- Adduct - a combination of two or more independently stable compounds.
- Amphipathic molecule - a molecule that has both polar and nonpolar portions, said nonpolar portion comprising a C9-C15 straight or branched chain alkyl group and said polar portion comprising an anionic group.
- the present invention provides adducts of human t-PA derivatives, wherein said adducts comprise a t-PA derivative that lacks the Finger, Growth Factor and Kringle 1 domains, bound to an amphipathic molecule.
- the invention also provides methods for preparing said adducts and compositions for the treatment of thromboembolic disorders.
- the present invention provides adducts of the formula X:R-A, wherein X is a nonglycosylated or monoglycosylated t-PA derivative that lacks the Finger, Growth Factor, and Kringle 1 domains; R is a C9 to C15 straight or branched chain alkyl group; and A is an anionic group.
- a preferred group of the above adducts comprises those adducts wherein R is a C10 to C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is selected from the group comprising: sulfate; sulfonate; phosphate; phosphonate; or a carboxylate anion.
- a more preferred group of the above adducts comprise adducts wherein R is a C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is selected from the group comprising: sulfate; sulfonate; phosphate; phosphonate; or a carboxylate anion.
- An even more preferred group of the above adducts comprise adducts wherein R is a C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is sulfate.
- the most preferred adduct of the invention is wherein X is the t-PA derivative mt-PA6, R is a C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group, and A is a sulfate group.
- amphipathic compounds useful in the formation of the adducts of the invention are C9-C15 alkyl sulfates, phosphates, sulfonates, phosphonates and carboxylates such as the anionic forms of the nonylsulfate, decylphosphonate, dodecylsulfate, tetradecylcarboxylate, undecylsulfate, pentadecylphosphate, and like fatty acids in the anionic form.
- the anionic group may be bonded to the hydrocarbon chain at any position. It is possible that the hydrocarbon chain can contain olefinic bonds and may be substituted by two or more acidic groups in anionic form.
- the anion portion A can be formed from one acid group of a dicarboxylic acid wherein the other carboxyl group forms an ester of a C9-C15 alcohol.
- a dicarboxylic acid such as malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, and the like, can form the half ester with an alkyl alcohol such as dodecyl alcohol or decyl alcohol to form the half acid ester.
- the latter is converted to the anionic form with a base, for example, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, to form the anionic salt form.
- the anionic charge of the anionic portion A will, of course, vary with the nature of the acid group.
- the anionic portion A may bear a mono or dinegative charge.
- the present invention also provides a method for preparing the adduct X:R-A which comprises mixing said t-PA derivative X, with a compound of the formula R-A under conditions that allow the binding of R-A to X, wherein R is a C9 to C15 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is an anionic group.
- R is a C10 to C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is selected from the group comprising: sulfate; sulfonate; phosphate; phosphonate; or a carboxylate anion.
- R is a C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is selected from the group comprising: sulfate; sulfonate; phosphate; phosphonate; or a carboxylate anion.
- R is a C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group and A is sulfate.
- X is the t-PA derivative mt-PA6.
- R is a C14 straight or branched chain alkyl group
- A is a sulfate group.
- Example 2 of the present invention demonstrates that the difference in enzymatic activity of the monoand diglycosylated t-PA derivatives lacking the Finger, Growth Factor, and Kringle 1 domains is due to the presence of sialic acid residues at the terminus of the carbohydrate moieties on the t-PA derivative molecule. This is demonstrated by removal of these sialic acid residues with neuraminidase. When mt-PA6-V or mt-PA6-P was treated with neuraminidase, the specific activity of these molecules was converted to that of the nonglycosylated form of the mt-PA6.
- the nonglycosylated form of mt-PA6 can be obtained from an Escherichia coli host cell which is transformed with a recombinant DNA expression vector that enables expression of mt-PA6.
- E. coli is an organism that is incapable of producing glycosylated proteins.
- the present invention provides that the contribution of the sialic acid residues to the fibrinolytic specific activity of the glycoforms of a t-PA derivative lacking the Finger, Growth Factor, and Kringle 1 domains can be duplicated by the addition of negative charge to this molecule.
- the t-PA molecule has several hydrophobic regions characterized by linear arrays of nonpolar amino acids. Because of this hydrophobicity, amphipathic molecules can be hydrophobically bound to a t-PA derivative, such as mt-PA6. The amphipathic molecules mimic the effect of the sialic acid residues on the fibrinolytic specific activity of the t-PA derivative molecule. When amphipathic molecules are added to a mixture of mt-PA6 glycoforms, the mixture is converted to a population of mt-PA6 molecules with the specific activity of the diglycosylated mt-PA6-V molecule.
- amphipathic molecules such as C9, C10, C12, C14, C16, and C18 alkyl sulfates were bound to the mt-PA6 molecules.
- the C9, C16 and C18 alkyl sulfates did not have this effect.
- Table 1 of Example 3 The results of this analysis are presented in Table 1 of Example 3.
- alkyl sulfates The effect of these alkyl sulfates is due to the sulfate group because tetradecanol, which does not contain an anionic group, had no effect on the specific activity of mt-PA6-P. Additionally, binding of the C14 alkyl sulfate to neuraminidase-treated mt-PA6-P restores the fibrinolytic specific activity to the same value as that observed for mt-PA6-V. Binding studies with radiolabelled C14 alkyl sulfate and mt-PA6-P or mt-PA6-V demonstrated that one mole of C14 alkyl sulfate is bound per mole of mt-PA6.
- the conditions for the binding of the t-PA derivative X, to the amphipathic compound R-A, as listed in Example 3, are merely illustrative. Conditions which optimize the binding of the t-PA derivative to the amphipathic compound should be chosen. Conditions such as temperature, pH, and the molar ratio of the t-PA derivative to the amphipathic compound, for example, may be varied in order to optimize the formation of the X:R-A adduct.
- the present invention is also useful in converting t-PA derivatives that lack the Finger, Growth Factor and Kringle 1 domains, which are expressed and purified from prokaryotic host cells, such as Escherichia coli , to forms which have the properties of the diglycosylated form of the molecule.
- the present invention is especially useful in this setting because prokaryotic host cells, such as E. coli , are incapable of glycosylating proteins.
- the present invention provides a method for imparting the biological activity of the diglycosylated form of this t-PA derivative to a derivative obtained from a host cell incapable of glycosylating proteins.
- t-PA6 is illustrative of such a t-PA derivative and is used herein to exemplify the usefulness of the present invention.
- amphipathic molecules may be bound to the t-PA derivative by the method described in Example 3. The specific activity of these molecules is then measured by the method of Example 1. If further analysis is desired, these compounds may be analyzed by the methods described by Jackson et al. , supra .
- thromboembolic disorders include deep vein thrombosis, disseminated intravascular coagulation, emboli originating from the heart or peripheral arteries, acute myocardial infarction, thrombotic strokes, and fibrin deposits associated with invasive cancers.
- thromboembolic disorders can be treated by administration of a thrombolytically effective dose of an adduct, X:R-A, of the present invention.
- the present invention thus provides a method for treating thromboembolic disorders in mammals which comprises administering to said mammal a thrombolytically effective dose of a t-PA adduct presented by the formula X:R-A.
- the adducts of the present invention can be formulated according to known methods to prepare pharmaceutically useful compositions, whereby an adduct of the present invention is combined in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier vehicle.
- Suitable carrier vehicles and their formulation, inclusive of other human proteins, e.g. , human serum albumin, are described for example, in Remington's Phamaceutical Sciences 16th ed., 1980, Mack Publishing Co., edited by Oslo et al. .
- Such compositions will contain an effective amount of an adduct of the present invention together with a suitable amount of carrier vehicle to prepare pharmaceutical compositions suitable for effective administration to the host.
- Such compositions can be administered parentally, or by other means that ensure its delivery to the bloodstream in an effective form.
- the preferred method of administration of an adduct of the present invention is by bolus intravenous administration.
- Preferred dosages range from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 10 mg/kg. More preferred dosages range from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 1 mg/kg. The most preferred dosage is about 0.4 mg/kg.
- mt-PA6 can be produced and isolated in accordance with the methods described by Burck et al. , supra . Fibrinolytic activity of the glycoforms of mt-PA6 was determined by a radial diffusion assay on a fibrin-agarose matrix plate (Schumacher and Schill, 1972, Anal. Biochem. 48:9-16). Small wells (6.5 mm) were cut into the fibrin-agarose matrix plate for sample application. Samples (20 ⁇ l) containing either mt-PA6 or reference standard t-PA, WHO Standard, batch 83/517 (Gaffey and Curtis, 1985, Throm. Haemostasis 53: 134-136), were placed in the precut wells of the plate.
- IU Activity values
- mt-PA6 samples were then incubated at 37°C in a moist oven for 16 hours.
- Activity values were assigned to mt-PA6 samples by comparison of the areas of the clear lysis zones caused by the mt-PA6 samples to a standard curve of clear lysis zones of the t-PA standard plotted against the log of the t-PA concentration (3.75-15.0 IU/ml).
- the protein content of mt-PA6 was determined using a computer-generated extinction coefficient (1.691 for a 1 mg/ml solution at 278 nm) derived from amino acid content of the enzyme.
- samples of mt-PA6-P and mt-PA6-V were treated with neuraminidase (Boehringer mannheim, Indianapolis, IN.) as follows.
- a 1.0 mg/ml (15 ⁇ M) solution of either mt-PA6-P or mt-PA6-V was dissolved in 5.0 ml of 0.05 M sodium acetate, pH 5.0.
- 0.24 ml of a 1 IU/ml solution of neuraminidase was added and the reaction mixture was incubated at 37°C.
- the progress of the reaction was monitored by chromatography of aliquots of the reaction mixture using a Mono S column on a Pharmacia FPLC system (800 Centennial Avenue, Piscataway, N.J. 08854). As the negatively charged sialic acid residues are removed from either mt-PA6-P or mt-PA6-V by the neuraminidase treatment, a later eluting (more positive) peak of mt-PA6 appears.
- fibrinolytic specific activity of mt-PA6-P (1,300,00 IU/mg) and mt-PA6-V (780,000 IU/mg) is increased to 1,870,000 IU/mg and 1,810,000 IU/mg, respectively, by the removal of the sialic residues by neuraminidase. These specific activities are approximately the same as that observed for the nonglycosylated form of mt-PA6 expressed in Escherichia coli .
- mt-PA6-P was incubated with straight chain C9, C12, C14 and C16 alkyl sulfates. Tetradecanol was used as a control.
- the alkyl sulfates used in the exemplification of the present invention were prepared as described by Sobel et al. , 1941, J. Am. Chem Soc. 63:1159-1161.
- Table 1 Sample Activity Fibrinolytic Specific mt-PA6-P 1,300,000 IU/mg mt-PA6-P + C8 alkyl sulfate 1,310,000 IU/mg mt-PA6-P + C12 alkyl sulfate 850,000 IU/mg mt-PA6-P + C14 alkyl sulfate 654,000 IU/mg mt-PA6-P + C16 alkyl sulfate 1,300,000 IU/mg mt-PA6-P + tetradecanol 1,320,000 IU/mg
- the data of Table 1 demonstrate that the introduction of negative charge by these amphipathic molecules has a profound effect in the fibrinolytic specific activity of the mt-PA6 molecule.
- the specific activity of the mt-PA6:C14 sulfate adduct is the same as that of mt-PA6-V.
- the mt-PA6 adduct may be isolated and purified by chromatography according to the method of Burck et al. , supra. , to separate the mt-PA6:C14 sulfate adduct from the excess C14 sulfate in the reaction mixture.
- mt-PA6-P or mt-PA6-V molecules were treated with neuraminidase, as described in Example 2, to remove the sialic acid residues from the mt-PA6 molecules.
- Each mt-PA6/neuraminidase reaction mixture was then adjusted to pH 3.0 with HCl, and a 10-fold molar excess (25 mM) of tetradecyl sodium sulfate was added.
